Every colour at once — pink, yellow, green, blue, red, orange — thrown into the air and onto each other in the most colour-saturated celebration on earth.
Holi is the festival of colours, of spring, and of the triumph of good over evil — and its colour palette is unique in the world because it is not a palette at all. It is all colours simultaneously, without hierarchy or restraint, thrown into the air as powder, dissolved in water, smeared on faces and clothing until everyone is a walking abstract painting. The festival celebrates the end of winter and the arrival of spring, and the explosion of colour is a direct expression of that: the world coming back to life after months of grey. Each colour carries meaning — red for love, yellow for knowledge, green for new beginnings, blue for the divine — but in practice, the meaning dissolves into pure chromatic joy.
